WHEN DISASTER STRIKESBY MEREDITH DAY
October 21, 2007, will always be remembered as a day of urgency in San Diego. Breaking news of quickly spreading wildfires. The smell of smoke and clouds of ash hanging over the county. More than half a million people displaced from their homes, 1,600 homes destroyed with thousands more damaged, and $700 million in property and acreage lost. At a time when everything seemed unsure, Southern Baptist pastors like Gunnar Hanson in Valley Center, California, called their churches to stand firm in God's promise of provision.
